Explore Leadore, Idaho, with this interactive street and satellite map.
This page also offers TOPO MAPS — the official USGS topographic sheets — plus USGS aerial imagery, a labelled USNG grid overlay, a distance and bearing tool, and a GPS grid-reference readout. See How to Use This Map below.
This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Leadore, Idaho. Use the Map and Satellite buttons above to switch between street map and aerial imagery views. Use the + and − buttons to zoom in or out, or scroll your mouse wheel while holding the Control key to zoom. On a touchscreen, use a two-finger pinch gesture. Drag the map to pan to any area of Idaho or beyond.
Click ⛶ Fullscreen to expand the map to fill your screen. To return to the normal page view, press the Escape key, click the ✕ Exit Fullscreen button that appears above the map, or on a mobile device tap the back button (Android) or the close icon (iOS).
TOPO MAPS — NEW. Click the green 🔍 Search Maps button below the map to open a second map with a Base map row offering three choices. OSM is the standard OpenStreetMap street map. Topo shows the official USGS topographic maps from The National Map — contours, hydrography, land cover and shaded relief, the same mapping used for hiking, hunting and back-country navigation in the Adirondacks, the Catskills and the Finger Lakes. Imagery shows USGS aerial photography, mostly 1-metre NAIP. The search box finds any US town, county or landmark by name, so you are not limited to Leadore.
Reading the map like a paper quad. Click Grid to overlay the U.S. National Grid (USNG), labelled along the edges exactly as a printed topographic sheet is — at normal zoom the squares are one kilometre across, so you can read a six-figure grid reference by eye and judge distance directly off the map. Click Measure, then tap two points, to get the distance between them together with the grid bearing in degrees and mils, the true bearing, and the magnetic bearing to set on a compass.
Click 📍 My position to take a single GPS reading from your device. It marks where you are and reports your position as a USNG grid reference as well as plain latitude and longitude — USNG being the format FEMA and US search and rescue teams work from — with a Copy position button so you can paste it straight into a text message. It takes one reading and stops, rather than tracking continuously, to conserve your battery. Note that map tiles need cell coverage, but a GPS reading does not — your coordinates stay correct even where the map itself cannot load.

Leadore emerges from the expansive high-desert terrain where the persistent flow of Texas Creek carves a narrow, verdant vein through the sagebrush flats. It lies 97.5 miles northwest of Rexburg, ID (from Rexburg, ID: bearing 308°T), and is situated 51.1 miles southwest of Dillon. The air here holds a thin, crystalline clarity, sharpening the silhouette of Mineral Hill as it rises four miles to the west, a solitary sentinel over the basin. Beyond the immediate reach of the creek, the landscape stretches into wide, arid plains where the light at dusk turns the dry grasses to the color of tarnished copper. To the east, the rugged topography of Jakes Canyon defines the horizon, its shadows deepening into indigo as the sun retreats behind the heights. Life in Leadore feels anchored to this vast, open scale, where the silence of the high country is broken only by the wind moving through the brush or the seasonal rush of water.
Salmon National Forest encompasses the borders of Leadore, providing a sprawling, timbered backdrop that has shaped the regional economy through generations of stewardship and labor. Historically, the rhythms of this place were dictated by the demands of the land, shifting from early resource extraction to a quiet reliance on the surrounding woods and the hardiness of high-altitude ranching. The residents maintain a deliberate pace, one that honors the distance between neighbors and the necessity of self-reliance in a landscape that remains indifferent to human ambition. While Coyote Lake lies twenty miles away, the local focus remains tethered to the immediate drainages and the slopes that offer a vantage point over the valley floor. Leadore persists as a waypoint of endurance, defined not by grand monuments, but by the steady, unadorned work of those who choose to live where the earth meets a wide and uninterrupted sky.

Search Maps opens a second, independent map. It searches OpenStreetMap for any US town, county or landmark by name; offers USGS topographic maps and USGS aerial imagery as base layers; overlays a labelled U.S. National Grid (USNG) so the map can be read like a printed topographic quad; measures distance and grid, true and magnetic bearings between any two points; and takes a single GPS fix reporting your position as a USNG grid reference and as latitude and longitude. Map tiles require cell coverage, but a GPS position does not, so the coordinates remain correct even where the map cannot load.
Location data is drawn from the USGS Geographic Names Information System (GNIS) and cross-verified against 2020 US Census records by coordinate proximity. Population figures are sourced from the 2020 US Census.
